SOLUTION: ABCDE is reflected across the x-axis to form A'B'C'D'E. then A'B'C'D'E is dilated by a scale factor of 0.5 about D' to form polygon LMNOP. vertices A and B correspond to L and M, r

Question 982890: ABCDE is reflected across the x-axis to form A'B'C'D'E. then A'B'C'D'E is dilated by a scale factor of 0.5 about D' to form polygon LMNOP. vertices A and B correspond to L and M, respectively. if the length of AB is 2.2 what is the length of LM?
0.275
0.55
1.1
2.2
4.4
*i tried multiplying the 2.2 by 2 which gave me 4.4, but that wasnt right.

It's dilated by 0.5 not 2. Should you multiply 0.5 by 2.2 and get 1.1?
